Preview Release 0.7.2 - You've got mail!

This release brings a private (but not secure) chat back to the platform, bridging to the old AIM protocol via a re-implemented Oscar server on webOS Archive's infrastructure. It also adds EAS mail/calendar/contact sync, and paves the way for modern Auth.

webOS Chat (new)

• Messaging 3.2.0, webOS CE's Messaging with its IM transport and libpurple, now built into Lunacy.
• Chat over AIM through webOS Chat (oscar.webosarchive.org), signed in with your webOS Account. There's
  no pass phrase to type: the chat account is set up as soon as you sign in.
• webOS Chat in Accounts:
  • Add Account → webOS Chat turns chat on;
  • removing the account turns chat off, and it stays off until you add it again;
  • signing out of the webOS Account resets that.
• Palm's old AIM account type is gone from Add Account, so there's no password prompt that can't work.
• New webOS Chat icons.
• IM transport fixes, made in codepoet's fork and built by webOS CE:
  • accounts no longer go "idle" by themselves five minutes after signing in;
  • deleting a buddy no longer crashes the transport, which used to crash-loop at every sign-in;
  • buddies' status reaches Messaging after the transport restarts, and accounts sign back in;
  • only the accounts webOS has sign in, so a removed account no longer signs in invisibly and swallows
    messages.

Email

• Exchange security policies, enforced by Android's own screen lock.
• An IMAP account with a message deleted on the device no longer gets stuck: new mail arrives again
  instead of push failing and retrying every second.

Fixes

• Messaging plays its own sent and received sounds instead of the alert ring for everything. This covers
  any app that names a sound by its own address.
• Lunacy's database now returns a property stored as null as null, as webOS did.
• The chat threader no longer spins at high CPU (the database's index for deleted messages).
• Text fields show their cursor as soon as they're tapped on scaled cards, such as Add Buddy.
• The status bar runs up into a display cutout and flows around the camera.
• Time-zone rules leave out a zone they don't know, as the TouchPad does.
• App Catalog's icon replaces HP's shopping bag, as on webOS CE.

Under the hood

• Bundled apps moved to CoreApps/ to help share with LuneOS, and build.sh builds the same bytes every time.
• A database watch fires at once when matching items already exist, as on the TouchPad.
